In Gabrielle Revlock’s Performance of a Feminine Object a hoop animates a female performer making reference to the historic and cultural disciplining of the female body. There is a tension in the work between poise and chaos, beauty and awkwardness, sense and nonsense.

Toronto-based choreographer Jenn Goodwin brings her latest work, To do. To don’t, a duet with a blanket and hair. Through comfort, protection, hostility, and weight, the work touches on “being enough.” Trying to get out of bed, take it in, keep it out, change, or make change. There is a lot to do. And a lot to don’t.
Choreographer and writer Victoria Libertore returns to Performance Mix with I Want to Die One Day After You, a new solo described as an 89-year love story that comes to an end with ferocity and grace. Directed by Jennifer Tuttle. Read more
Kuldeep Singh’s BATTU is a traditional, pure dance piece in the repertoire of Indian classical dance of Odissi, post Indian independence. The piece extols the wall frieze sculptures of mighty Sun Temple of Konark (built in 13th c. AD) unfolding into elaborate patterns, set to the complex rhythmic cycles of Odissi pakhwaj (percussion instrument).
Mari Meade’s dialogue (excerpt) is a danced series of city-life conversations and interactions. Characters as diverse as a group of expectant mothers waiting for their doctors’ appointments and a trio of arguing male board room members share slices of urban life and the stressors, humilities, hubbub, and private moments of reflection therein.
India-born, U.S.-raised choreographer Parijat Desai’s JustLikeThat 4.0 is part of an ongoing exploration of language and state power using dance and experimental theater. Desai began the project in 2014 exploring badly written Indian news articles and turning them into song and dance. In the most recent iteration, she began to develop additional characters. Parijat was recently awarded Center for Performance Research’s Mertz Gilmore Late Stage Production Grant.
